Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for compacting laminates. One embodiment is a method for compacting a laminate onto a surface of a forming tool. The method includes placing the laminate onto the forming tool, disposing a compaction device over the laminate, gripping the compaction device to the forming tool, compacting the laminate with a pressure foot of the compaction device, and removing the compaction device from the forming tool.

Abstract: A work platform configured to support one or more workers in proximity to a workpiece. The work platform includes sliders that are aligned along the length of the workpiece. The sliders are laterally movable towards and away from the workpiece. The sliders are individually movable with a position of each of the sliders relative to the workpiece being a function of the rotational position of the workpiece.

Abstract: One or more technique and/or systems for a coating roller assembly, including a coating applicator cage frame (122) and a frame wire (102, 302). The roller assembly can comprise a handle (150) coupled with the frame wire (102, 302) configured to operably hold the coating applicator cage frame (122). Bearings (120, 126, 320, 326) can be fixed to the coating applicator cage frame (122) at its both ends. Instead of using typical pinning or swedging techniques for holding the bearing (120, 302), a sleeve can be crimped into place over a treated surface of the frame wire (102, 302) between the second end (106) and third bend (112). In this way, for example, the structural integrity of the frame wire (102, 302) can be substantially maintained, providing for improved durability and a longer life for the roller assembly.

Abstract: A storage container with a spout is provided that can store a coating material. The storage container can include a container body having a shape, which may be a circular shape, polygonal shape, or a rounded-polygonal shape. The container body includes a side wall having first and second ends. The storage container with a spout can include a first opening with a corresponding lid and the spout providing a second opening with a corresponding cap. The storage container can further include a handle formed with an aperture through a side of the container body.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel calibrated gauges for use with tire deflators which improve their ease of use, accuracy and consistency. Particularly, these novel gauges enable users to precisely set or maintain the distances between various fixed points on a tire deflator, which correspond to a desired tire pressure, enabling the simplified, precise and reliable setting of that tire deflator. This is a huge improvement as most tire deflators rely on inherently unreliable trial and error calibration of their air pressure settings which may change over time and without indication. More particularly, the present invention enables faster setting times for tire deflators with more reliable results, easier changes between pressure settings, and more accurate tire pressures. Embodiments of this invention include various gauges customized in dimension and material for use with different model tire deflators to achieve various tire pressures as desired.
